Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Once you get through the other 200+ people who would like to try being a curator, I would DEFINITELY like to become one.

I have in interest in all sorts of projects, tools, animation, art, classic remade games, really whatever catches my attention!

I have been a Scratcher for 2 and a half years, and am still loving it. This job would help me give other less-known users a boost to encourage them to continue Scratching!

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be a curator because I think that it's important to give credit to those projects who may not necesarily be viewed due to age of the project or popularity of the maker. I would feature those projects rightly and would not abuse my authority. I would make sure to be fair and and pick thought provoking projects that deserve a chance. I seriously feel I am the right choice and feel that I can take on the responsiblity and sacrifices that come with this job. I am avilable to the internet almost 24/7 and reallly want this job. I am honest, fair, and have a great eye for hard work. I was elected by my classmates for most responsible, hardest worker and much more. If you have any questios or comments, feel free to comment me or post a reply. Thank you for your time. Have a great day! : D


Sincerely,
      MKR

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would apply for Curator, only I almost never do anything with favorites.  Like everyone else, I would choose projects that are good, but haven't been viewed enough.

If I become a Curator, I'll probably create a gallery where people can submit projects they want me to choose, and review them to see if they're worthy of front page.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to become a curator. Currently I am interested in gadgets, as in my Pathdrawer.
Games like Slimy 3 by penguin1556 and XP adventure by axu are projects that deserve attention.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I figured I'd give it(trying out for curator) a shot. I would probably be looking for projects that display graphical excellence, .such as using blender to pre-render images, or using GIMP to create/edit photographs, and importing them into scratch. But not only excellence in graphics but also in the use of those graphics. Innovation in difficult areas of programming, exploring new concepts and work arounds, would all be taken into effect. I strive to always be positive with me feedback, or remain silent.

As for experience: I have been around the scratch community for a little over a year now and am heavily involved with blender, a 3D design and animation program.(that explains my obsession with graphics design and desire to see superior programming). Over time, I have realized more and more  how absolutely amazing it is to see what people can do with such a "simple" programming language. Despite this simplicity, it always leaves you wanting more.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would enjoy being a curator because I feel that too many people only look at certain popular people's projects, and some are really funny, but will anyone ever know? Does that make her crazy is a funny project but only has about 20 views and 5 different commentors, that's sad, I'd like to change that, "Don't read this" is a project I've already made about discussing this problem, but how many people read it?

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

i would love to be a curator as well.  I have many friends with really complicated and well done projects that have not been seen by many people on scratch that i would like to show.  most of these projects would be games but i would also try to show mroe a variety and show videos too.  i will probably focus on showing original series, but sometimes you can find really cool game clones so i'm not just going to stick to one kind if i find another kind that is better. thanks!

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I think this is a awesome idea! It means that more people can become recognised (recognized if you're American) in the Scratch community. I'd love to be a curator! If I were to be chosen, I would select a range of different projects. From games, to animations, to good simulations, to quizzes and that kind of thing. I would try to select project with not many views but with an interesting themes and good graphics. But the major factor if I could select projects for the Scratch Home would be ADDICTIVENESS!!!!  big_smile  (Scratch Team Please Pick Me!!!)

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Id like to be one because I have a taste in great art and not just some sloppy animation.I would pick peoples projects that they actually had spent real time on.I realize that some people are popular because of their artwork,but they could probably have done it by being nice and making lots of 5-minute random projects that look good but arent very original.I want to reach out and help more scratchers get popular and more known. <set{popularity}to(more)

I have a question, will they announce the new curator when he/she is selected, or will we have to go digging around ourselves?

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would love to become a Curator!
If I become a curator I would discover all the undiscovered greats. What I mean by that is that I will Favorite projects that not only are great but are by members of the scratch community that have not even gotten close to the limelight.I will also chose projects that are only original, have less than 5 love it's and older than 3 days. So it will be a basic Featured Curator role if I get chosen. The projects I will chose will range from Simple to complex, Artistic to creative, and in general Scratchalicious (Scratch wonderful!). I will also make forum posts giving helpful tips to scratchers to help them be favorited. Thank you and I hope I get chosen!
